Re: burning?

> I too had burning while on a accidental mixture of paxil and Zoloft ( dumb pharmacist), it felt like a friction burn in my brain. Very hard to describe to someone unless they have had it. I had the syndrome, and was very close to a full blown emergency case. Lucky for me it was discovered in time. Best to you. Mary

Mary,

You described it before in these terms also:"burning of my head (like a carpet burn to the back of my head inside)."

To me that is suggestive of hypertensive crisis, which can be a complicaton of CSS. It feels like a sharp tingling, like my hair is standing on end. The tingling forms a ring on my head, like a halo. Then the back of my head starts to ache, as though I've been hit with something. Other symptoms: nausea, sensitivity to light, dilated pupils, sweating, fever, neck stiffness. The main one, though, is the very severe headache.
